Although the deadlines to implement web-content accessibility requirements from Title II Subpart H of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) have been officially extended by one year (see the official Federal Register announcement), our need to understand the requirements and complete the work is still very present. On April 7, Melissa Eighmy Brown and Joyce Melvin from the RapidILL Working Group and Mike Richins, the RapidILL product manager, presented a live webinar and discussion of Title II, interlibrary loan, and RapidILL’s new OCR workflow. The webinar recording is available here for those of you who couldn’t attend, and the slides are also available for review. Please note the recording started approximately 40 seconds prior to the session start if you want to move forward to the beginning.
